<div class="IPBDescription">The world officially hates me.</div> I think this is possibly the worst day of my life, it's the kinda bad that makes me think I'm cursed. In this one 24 hour period more bad stuff hsa happened to me than in the past month. The story begins at about a quarter to 2 this morning......
I'm talking to my girlfriend, she asks me what's wrong, she basically tells me that she doesn't love me any more, but she isn't sure. Since she doesn't seem to care what I have to say on the subject anyway, I decide to stop talking to her for the night. I immediately go all emo, and spend the next hour and a half in tears listening to Weezer and Duran Duran, clutching a pillow and a necklace that she had given me, and rocking back and forth on my bed. Y'know, basic insecure moody teen stuff. Well at about 2 I decide that I really should be sleeping since I had stuff to do in the afternoon that I wanted to be well-rested for, so I check my comp to see if any of my dowloads have finished.
It turns out, an anime I had been waiting for a very long time to finish DLing had finished. It's a short anime called "Voices of a Distant Star, so I decided to watch it to get my mind of off the earlier morning's unpleasentness. Unfortunately, I discover that the subtitles are not working. I spend another hour and a half trying to get the subs on this anime to work. I try everything, download every player/subtitle proram I can find, reinstall then all at least once, rename the files, place them in different directories by themselves, but nothing works, and every tut and FAQ I can find about subtitles just says "place the subs in the same directory and name them the same as the video file" which I had already tried. So at about 4:15 or sometime thereabouts I decide that I'll worry about it in the morning, and that I really need my sleep for the afternoon. But was I going to sleep then? Heck no!
Just as I'm about to drift off, there is a car accident or something right in front of my house, and two obviously drunk individuals begin to scream at each other (which I can clearly hear through my window). Eventually a woman (presumably having been woken up by the noise) joins in, and one guy drives off. Then he comes back, and starts screaming some more! At a little after 5 They both leave and I finally go to sleep.
Cut to 11:00AM today, I wake up and go look for some more ways to get those subs to work, only to discover that during the night, little gnomes had crawled inot my computer and told it to hate me and therefore whenever I try to open up IE it immediately crashes. The only way I can surf the web is by opening up windows explorer and typeing in the url of where I want to go. Whenever I do this, however, my comp slows down like a mofo and my taskbar/desktop dissapear and whenever a link opens a new window everything crashes anyway. Noteing that this=the suck and that I was still very tired I decided to eat lunch and get going to the show that was scheduled for 1:00. I hadn't been to a show in more than a month, so I figured "Maybe this could be good." Oh was I wrong.
One thing I forgot to mention: when I go through a lot of stress, I get the worst stomach cramps in the history of time. Needless to say, the previous events listed were rather stressful, so before I ate I spent about 15 minutes curled up in a ball on my bathroom floor writhing in pain.
I had to walk to the place where the show was, so I had to leave almost right after I ate and as it was(and still is) rather hot, I was tired as hell by the time I got there at 1:00. The show started about an hour later because the first band(who weren't even that good anyway) didn't show when they were supposed to. I saw about 6 bands, only one of which was good.
The one good band (the last band I stayed for) is one of my all time favorites, the Jonee Earthquake Band(you've probly heard me mention them). They played a killer set, and there was a great pit, but since I had gotten such horrible sleep that morning I was so tired that I got myself beat in the pit. I hit my head very hard trying to do a flip, both my knees hurt like hell, and I am just basically wiped out. Now I have to walk home, nearly passing out several times along the way. I got home, took a shower, and that is how you see me now. Barely able to move, depressed as all hell, and in constant pain. Now I gotta reboot my comp and try to figure out what the crap is wrong with my system, or plead with my girlfriend. I wonder how that will turn out........

Already tried it, whenever the download window comes up, guess what happens? CRASH CITY BABY! [edit] apparently this was just some random popups crashing, so I just had to get the timing right. DLing Opera now.[/edit]
O, and BTW, since I last posted one new bad thing has happened. My ride to the NS release party canceled on me. Why does god have it in for me?
Yup.
At the risk of sounding heartless...
Your 17 abouts, right? Teenage dating just isn't worth it. You've only been socially and sexually aware for maybe 5 years? And you think you have the capacity for true love? I doubt it. This isn't just you, its a general rule of mine.
My parents just celebrated their 25th anniversary, and they were talking about renewing their vows. My mom mentioned another couple who had done it, saying they said it was the hardest thing they had ever done, because they now realized the commitment and deepnees of real 'love'.
IMHO, High School dating has 2 purposes: fun and gaining experience. And the best kind of experience to gain is that which is needed for having fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
And it does sound like the rest of your day sucked. Don't worry, everyone has those days. The best solution I can offer is sleep. Sleep is good. Also, download uplifting stuff, like 'The sun will come out tommorow" (punk cover).
Also, get 80's music. Thats good. And play a mindless killing game. Like TS or Vice City.
Just... Don't beg. Not attractive.
A) I knew she was going to do it a few days before she did, and was ready for it.
and
B) I never got attached to the point where I would be launched in to depression when she did.
You clearly need some rest. Your P.C will still be
here in the morning/afternoon/whenever for you to tinker
with. As for the girlfriend issues..... talk to her about it.
The worst thing you can do in a relationship is refuse to
discuss your problems or doubts with each other.
Regarding the computer, a reformat can be a refreshing experience. Its kinda like spring cleaning.
Seconded on the sleep. Get a few full nights.
On the girlfriend, it's probably going to be either now or later. Pick one, act accordingly.
good luck with all that <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

Could be far worse, I use to get those all the time. a year later it got worse and i wound up in the hospital puking my guts out, for three straight hours.
Crohns Disease, not fun stuff.

In a highly strange way, that sorta makes sense........
I'm sorry friend, that all this has happened to you. The most I can say is, try and be...well, try to think of your life as something much more...lighter, than it is. It will keep you out of depression, and it'll make you a lot happier.
Another thing-if things really don't work out with this girl, don't worry about it. While I don't agree with Jammer at all(I think anyone has the capacity to love, I just think that your...maturity level has to do with it. From what I've seen of you, your way above the mark), he does have one thing right- sometimes, the girl's just aren't worth it. As I said, if they don't work out, just...keep yourself open. Another will come to you.
Good luck. You ever have a bad day again like this, PM me.
Always happy to help anyone that needs it.
He has it in for pretty much everyone, it's how you take it that matters.

Y.
Life is not fair to anyone, keep trying to pull everything together, it will eventually happen.

or a rewind button.
The other reason may be a twisted intestine, which isn't as easy to deal with.
one of the things my experiences have taught me is to learn to let things go. when life's problems seem overwhelming, <b>BACK AWAY!</b> Take a big step back, take a deep breath, and just like, go to sleep or something, especially at night time.
Next, break your problems down 1 by 1 and see what you can do for each one of them.
I understand the deepness of the girlfriend part. its true, teenage dating does suck. I've been put thru so much **** its sickening. There is no advice i can tell you that will work, people get over things on their own, at their own rates. Just dont do anything stupid like i did, and ride it out.
If i was in your shoes, i'd completely ignore the gf for a bit until i could cool off and she could figure out exactly what her feelings were. then i'd talk again. do not beg tho.
Just remember, you can overcome any problem in life so long as you don't let it get you down. Take everything on with a clear and open mind. You can do it.

Edit - Forgot the preposition "of".
The reason Communism failed is that we are human.
Hmm it seems like that is the reason love fails.......
So I just finished camp, and one of the instructers there is also a full time teacher at the college (DigiPen). In the morning, while we're all working on our projects, he gets a phone call. The mechanic won't give him his car back because he hasn't paid for repairs. The car had been damaged by his roofers when some tiles fell, and they said they'd take care of it. They didn't. His after lunch, his OTHER car, which he took in for a checkup during lunch, turned out to need $800 to fix the air conditioning, for no apparent reason. Great. Then his wife calls, and she wants to move to England because she got a job there. Heh. All this in a day. Then the programming class (we're 3d animation) decides to delete stuff off the shared folder of the college, for no apparent reason (there were like 21 gigs free when they deleted our crap), so half of us had to re-render our projects.
Whoo, that was bad. I guess nothing bad will ever happen to him again, eh? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
